There he finished on 6th place in Special Slalom and on 4th place in Alpine Combined. Two years before, in World Championships at St. Moritz (Switzerland), he won the bronze medal in Alpine Combined. Mr. Junginger died in an airplane crash when he piloted a small airplane from Munich to Hannover in Germany.
